There are eight occurrences of the phrase in Paul’s “genuine” epistles:

διὰ πίστεως Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ (“through faith[/fulness] in [/of] Jesus Christ”; Rom 3.22);
ἐκ πίστεως Ἰησοῦ (“by faith[/fulness] in [/of] Jesus”; Rom 3.26);
διὰ πίστεως Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ (“through faith[/fulness] in [/of] Jesus Christ”; Gal 2.16a);
ἐκ πίστεως Χριστοῦ (“by faith[/fulness] in [/of] Jesus”; Gal 2.16b);
ἐν πίστει … τοῦ υἱοῦ τοῦ θεοῦ (“by faith[/fulness] in [/of] the Son of God”; Gal 2.20);
ἐκ πίστεως Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ (“by faith[/fulness] in [/of] Jesus Christ”; Gal 3.22);
διὰ τῆς πίστεως Χριστοῦ Ἰησοῦ (“through faith[/fulness] in [/of] Christ Jesus”; Gal 3.26, only in manuscript P46);

Modern textcrit-seminarian scholarship becomes so confused that they can barely even understand the question, much less yet give the answer.)

This phrase (πιστεως Iησου Χριστoυ) as seen in (Rom. 3:22; Gal 2:16; 3:22) is distinct from the phrase (πιστεως εν Iησου Χριστoυ) as found in (Gal. 3:26). You must understand that there are two aspects to faith. One, is the Function of faith and is usually designated by the word “your” or something similar. Two, is the Doctrine of faith, which is usually found proceeded by the article “the”. An example of this is found in (Col. 1:23) “ If ye continue in the faith grounded and settled, and be not moved away from the hope of the gospel, which ye have heard, and which was preached to every creature which is under heaven; whereof I Paul am made a minister;”. Here faith is referring to the doctrine/the gospel. Therefore, we can see that “faith of Jesus Christ” is in reference, NOT to the function of Christ’s faith nor even our function of faith, BUT to the doctrine of faith which Christ is the object of . See the same use of “of” in (Eph. 4:13; Phil. 1:27; 1Thess. 3:2).

πίστις Χριστοῦ
(faith of Christ)
In addition to the distinction of the faith of Christ and faith in Christ, the faith of Christ can have two distinct meanings.
The personal faith and faithfulness of Jesus
The Gospel and doctrines about Jesus
Anything of wonderment from early church writers?

The Faith of Jesus Christ in Early Christian Traditions (2005)

Thanks! This one has a review here by Michael Winger that is helpful.

“Faith" is understood to identify a relationship with God and also the “outworking” of that relationship in the life of the faithful one. As a practical matter it is usually identified in the texts by the presence of xionc or one of its cognates, although Wallis acknowledges that these terms do not exactly correspond to the concept under investigation.

From Jewish sources Wallis moves to the Synoptic Gospels, where he finds evi-
dence of Jesus’ faith in certain miracle stories (for example, Mark 9:14-29), as well as in
various savings. Wallis argues that early levels of tradition reflect a view that Jesus exem-
plified faith, a view partially obscured by later editing.
